iManage has appointed Ryan Begin as Vice President, Technology Partnerships and Ecosystem Strategy and David Zember as Vice President, Global Channels and Alliances. The two leaders will work together to advance iManage’s global partner strategy, expand the company’s technology ecosystem, strengthen alliance and channel execution, and create a more coordinated framework for driving customer success, innovation, and growth.
The appointments come at a time when organizations are increasingly seeking connected systems that extend value across the knowledge work lifecycle through AI, automation, and interoperability. Begin will lead the development of a scalable technology partnerships and ecosystem strategy, working across Product, Engineering, Marketing, and Go-to-Market teams to establish technical and commercial foundations for partner innovation and platform growth.
Zember will focus on shaping how iManage leverages strategic alliances, technology partners, resellers, and implementation partners to accelerate customer success and expand market reach. His responsibilities include defining partnership goals and aligning cross-functional stakeholders to ensure the partner ecosystem drives innovation and value.
“Partners have always been central to iManage’s success, and both Ryan and David bring important strengths that will help us scale our strategy for the next phase of growth,” said Pat Eskew, Chief Revenue Officer at iManage. “Ryan brings deep expertise in ecosystem strategy, technology partnerships, and platform development, while David brings extensive experience building high-performing global partner programs across channels and alliances. Together, they will help us build a more coordinated, partner-first approach that expands value for customers, partners, and iManage.”
Ryan Begin brings deep experience in ecosystem development and platform partnership strategy. During his 14 years at Salesforce, he helped pioneer the AppExchange and scale the company’s ISV and partner ecosystem to more than 7,000 apps, generating over $6 billion in revenue for partners. His expertise includes building structured partner programs and aligning technical and commercial value.
David Zember brings more than 30 years of leadership across engineering, enterprise sales, channel and alliance management, and executive roles. Most recently, he led worldwide partners, alliances, and ISV strategy at Qlik, where the partner organization represented approximately half of the company’s annual recurring revenue. He has been recognized multiple times as a CRN Channel Chief and was named one of CRN’s Top 25 Channel Sales Leaders of 2025.
"iManage is at an important inflection point,” said Ryan Begin, Vice President, Technology Partnerships and Ecosystem Strategy at iManage. “Customers are rethinking how knowledge work gets done. AI, automation, and interoperability are no longer future ideas, they are current expectations. That creates a real opportunity to extend our reach through the right technology partners and deliver more complete outcomes for our customers."
“I’ve always been a true believer in ecosystem selling and the power of partnership,” said David Zember, Vice President, Global Channels and Alliances. “iManage has built a trusted foundation for knowledge work, and that foundation is what enables confident, scalable AI. I’m excited to work with our partners to build modern, partner-first programs that support customers today while positioning iManage for its next phase of growth.”
